Is it possible to instruct Context to use a font in general, except
for a single character?
Since you have mentioned elsewhere that you have \definefontfamily[…]
you can set a fallback font family with \definefallbackfamily[…] and
choose a font which has the character you want:
⋮
\definefallbackfamily[mainfont][rm][Latin Modern]
[range=controlpictures,force=yes]
\definefontfamily[mainfont] […]
⋮
\setupbodyfont[mainfont]
The 'controlpictures' Unicode block (≡ U+2400 – U+243F) contains the
character you want.

Hi Kausika,

This is what I tried -

\definefallbackfamily [mainfont]
	[rm]
	[Latin Modern]
	[range=controlpictures,force=yes]
\definefontfamily [mainfont]
	[rm]
	[RIT-Rachana]
	[features=malayalam-two]
\setupbodyfont [mainfont]

\starttext

\title{മലയാളലിപികളുടെ ആവൃത്തി നിർണ്ണയം}
␣
\stoptext

This doesn't print the open box. If I remove the definefontfamily
command or define font family using only Latin Modern, open box is
printed, but not the title.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
